Our Coalition is composed of
volunteers from various organizations.
We believe the very costly war in Iraq may have been
launched
illegally and that it
and
other possibly illegal actions by President Bush and
his
administration are the major issues
facing America.
We wish to protect democracy and defend the
constitution--and believe that a return to the rule of law can bring
both peace and justice.
We
were inspired by the successful April Bring Our Troops
Home referendum efforts in 32 communities across the
state.
Our goal is to be a resource to help activists in
communities
throughout Wisconsin place resolutions on the November 2006 and April
2007 ballots:
- calling
on the administration to BRING OUR TROOPS HOME
and
- calling on the congress to START an
IMPEACHMENT INVESTIGATION of the Bush administration.
Mission Statement
Peace Action-Wisconsin is a peace and justice organization which works for a world where human needs are met, the environment is preserved, and the threats of war and nuclear weapons have been abolished.
Voices for Creative Nonviolence is organizing the Occupation
Project, a campaign of sustained nonviolent civil disobedience aimed at
ending the U.S. war in and occupation of Iraq. The campaign will begin
the first week of February 2007 with occupations at the offices of
Representatives and Senators who refuse to pledge to vote against
additional war funding.
VotersForPeace is educating, organizing and
activating voters
to end the occupation of Iraq and prevent future wars of aggression. We
want to organize anti-war voters into an effective political force that
cannot be ignored. We provide voters with the information and tools
they
need to be effective advocates; this may mean educating your friends
and family on the occupation, writing letters to the media, or becoming
active in your region's Congressional elections.
Peace North is a small but very dedicated group of peace and social justice activists in Northern Wisconsin.
